Vision  6 by 6

Rotaract Club of The Caduceus (RCCaduceus) - Medical Camp

          Children with undiagnosed visual acuity issues often are unaware that this isn’t normal. They find it difficult to keep up with blackboard teaching, subsequently losing interest. Not knowing whats wrong with them, they don’t complain of the symptoms. Such kids maybe labelled as dull by the supervising adults. Owing to such reasons, at a young age these children can develop an aversion to attending school. The motivation behind our project, “Vision Six by Six,” was that this aversion could be prevented. 

           Our primary objective is to diagnose & treat refractory errors. Our secondary objective is to deliver eye care for problems other than refractory error (such as Vit A deficiency, squint, cataracts, conjunctivitis etc.). The programme was awarded as an outstanding project by Rotary International and our club was felicitated prior to the RI convention in Lisbon, Portugal, in 2013 (link). We have served more than 15,000 kids under this programme till date. The most recent camp being at a remand home in Pune in partnership with our twin club RC Pune Sinhghad Road...

serving since 2012
